In addition to the avoidance and long-term storage (CCS) of anthropogenic CO2 emissions, the utilization of CO2 for the production of usable products is discussed as a possible method of reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The associated technologies are summarized under the term "Carbon Capture and Utilization" (CCU). CCU technologies have gained increasing attention in science and industry over the last decade and are considered essential for meeting the reduction goals of the Paris Agreement. The selection of research papers in this book, mostly focused on Power-to-X technologies and the catalytic conversion of CO2, are related to the most recent advancements in CCU technologies.

In recent years, we have assisted the remarkable growth in the use of functional polyesters. This book gathers novel research works dealing with the manufacturing and characterization of polyesters that have been functionalized by synthesis, copolymerization, additives (at micro- and nanoscale), surface modification, among other methodologies, to tailor desired properties in terms of mechanical, chemical, thermal, and barrier properties, biodegradation, and biocompatibility. Thus, Advances in Manufacturing and Characterization of Functional Polyesters will serve to guide a diverse audience of polymer scientists and engineers and provides an update of the “state-of-the-art” knowledge on functional polyesters.
